When pins and needles
become pain and tired feeling
you think a bit more
of what was before
makes me happy to see
my childhood strawberries and cream
and the of course of a sunbeam
all the memories blow away the aches
all the memories about the best
blow away the rest

love this line, "and the of course of a sunbeam" the whole poem is so gentle and quiet, I could wrap myself up in it.

Thank you shoe and SundaysChild. Your comments warm me like the sunbeam does in this glorious springtime.

you have better memories than I.

It is a bit Yin Yang- but you bet I have some good memories. I have 3 lovely sisters I have shared them with. Beautiful;) I can feel love in me for my memories and my children and my sisters. Parents deceased but the love is there- a bit yin yang- is it Zen if I say My memories are me or is it I am my memories- it's the same isn't it?

Hi Pia, Just had to write and tell you how much I love this poem, it's true that I feel the same way as you, not being able to do the things that you used to be able to do. I think you should live while your young, glad I did, because we can look back now we are nearing our sixties and say yes I had a good life. Jenny.
